Products for Senior Dogs

Dogs live longer these days than ever before, and along with that comes an increase in senior dogs with arthritis, joint pain and other age-related ailments.

When dogs age it is natural for them to experience more aches and pains. In this respect, senior dogs deal with health issues that are not unlike some of those experienced by people as they enter their golden years. We carry a variety of products that can be beneficial to senior dogs with joint pain, a common condition in many medium to large size dog breeds.

In addition to pet ramps for dogs that have trouble getting up stairs, and heated/orthopedic beds to help relieve pressure points while at rest, we also carry elevated dog bowls. An elevated dog bowl can provide relief to senior dogs by eliminating the need for them to stoop all the way down to floor level to eat or drink. If a dog has arthritis or joint pain, stooping so low can be a painful burden. Raised dog bowls can be an instant source of relief making it easier to eat and drink without stooping.

If your senior dog is experiencing discomfort you will see the signs. A limping dog could be a sign of injury or of an age-related malady. Either way, one of our pet ramps would be a big help if he or she needs to get into a vehicle or up a few stairs. We carry many different styles and sizes of pet ramps including extra long dog ramps to extra short ones.

Other popular items with owners of senior dogs are pet strollers and bicycle trailers.
